An object of this invention is the provision of a heating stove orfurnace with a means that will radiate the greatest possible amount ofheat at an expenditure of a camparatively small quantity of fuel andwhich will cont sume practically all of the fuel.V

To the attainment of the foregoing the invention consists in theimprovement hereinafter described and definitely claimed.

In the drawing:

Figure 1 is a substantially vertical longitudinal sectional view througha stove or furnace provided with the improvement.

Figure 2 is a horizontal sectional view on the line 2-2 of Figure 1.

In the drawing the stove or furnace body is indicated by the numeral 1in which there is arranged the usual grate above the ash pit and whichgrate is as usual arranged in the bottom of the lire pot. Above the firepot the stove body 1 is provided with the usual fuel inlet openingclosed by the usual door and the ash pit is also provided with the usualdoor for closing the opening therein. The

top 2 of the stove body is preferably removable and in the combustionchamber 3 of the body l, below the top 2 there is arranged the bodyportion of my improvement which is broadly indicated by the numeral 5.The

3o improvement is shaped similar to that of a pipe trap, or in otherwords, formation. The hollow goose neck body 5 provides a combined fueland gas heater or in other words a means for super-heating the productsof combustion that pass therethrough. The outlet end ofthe member 5 isconnectedto the ring flange that surrounds the smoke opening in the body1 and into which opening there is fixed the elbow 6 for the smoke stack.-The centrally arranged vertical branch of the member 5 has a ringmember 7, and this ring member receives the downwardly extending end 8of a bellshaped flame spreader 9. The liame spreader provides the mouthof the goose neck hollow member 5 anddirects the products of combustionfrom the combustion chamber thereinto. The products of combustion kwillbe spread by the bell-shaped member 9 before entering the member 5 sothat they willbe of goose neck subjected to .alll of; the fire from the"fire `pot andAk thereby' consumed.' The products of combustion or gasespassing through the member 5 are super-heated by the heat to which thesaid member is subjected so that such gases are practically entirelyconsumed before finding lan outlet through the elbow 6. The member 5, atthe bottom, is provided with an opening and this opening is normallyclosed by the flange of a disc plate 10. The plate 10 is formed with adepending stem 11 having a reduced portion 12 on whose end there isformed a head 13. The reduced or notched portion 12 of the stem isarranged in a line with the opening 14 in the stove body 1 and thisvopening is normally closed by a pivoted plate or valve 15. 'When theplate is swung to open position there may be passed through the openingla the forked end of a rod 16, indicated by the dotted lines in Figure 1of the drawing, the said forked end being received in the notch 12. Thelower wall of the opening 14 provides a fulcrum for the rod 16, so thatthe same can be canted and the disc 10, which provides a closure as wellas a valve for the bottom of the member 5 may be swung to open positionand aweight may be attached to the outer end of the rod 16 for holdingthe disc 10 in raised and opened position. This is desirable when themember 5 is to be cleaned 0r when a direct draft-is desired as when thefire kis first started.

The construction and advantages -of my improvement will, it is thought,be understood and appreciated by those skilled in the art to which suchinvention relates so that 'further description will not be required.

However, I desire to -state that I do not wish to be restricted to thedetails herein set forth and, therefore, hold myself entitled to makesuch changes therefrom as fairly fall within the scope of what I claim.v

Having described the invention, I claim:

A stove comprising a casing having its upper end closed and providedwith a smoke opening at one side adjacent the upper end thereof, a firebox in the casing, a tubularV body of a goose neck shape located in thecasing and having one end mounted in` the smoke opening and the otherend disposed vertically toward the top of the casing, an upwardly andoutwardly flared spreader on the last named end of the body to directproducts of combustion passing upwardly from the tire box toward theWalls and top of the casing before entering said body by way of thespreader, said body having an opening located directly over the fireboX, a removable cover for closing the last named opening, and anoperating rod extending through the casing and connected to said coverfor canting the latter when desiring a directif draft for the productsof combustion into the body from the fire box.

In testimony whereof I afx my signature.

JOHN H. SIEMER.
